The equipment:

A pair of good trainers, sports leggings and a cotton T-shirt. You can also use a towel because you will probably sweat a lot and it is advisable to carry around a bottle of water, in case of dehydration. You may also buy a gel seat, because you may find the bike seats really uncomfortable.

About the workouts:

Stationary bikes have proven to be helpful in cardiovascular exercise and medical therapy because it increases blood circulation and in the transportation of oxygen to various parts of the body. Participants burn an average of 500 calories in 40 minutes.

Spinning exercise tones glutes and abdomen or core, buttocks and legs because these are the muscle groups that are directly affected. Toning is done by adjusting the resistance of the bike because the body balances while on a pedal and in doing so gets those often stubborn muscle groups to burn calories. The spinning enhances weight reduction. The main idea is that through spinning you get to tone your entire body! But, if you are keen in sculpting your lower body, this is really perfect exercises for you!

Sculpt Body

Spinning doesn’t work all leg muscles equally, so without some cross-training, you may develop larger thighs. Serious spin enthusiasts have to watch out for overuse injuries in their knees, hips and lower back. So, our advice is to combine spinning program with squats, calf raises, leg raises, leg circles and a variety of Pilates moves if you want to get to slender slimmer legs.
Spinning is a great social class because with maybe the exception of those taking part in their first class can take part in any available class. It’s this openness of classes that attracts participants of all ages, weights and fitness levels. So, don’t worry if you’ll feel uncomfortable in the first session, maybe you never rode a bike, maybe you don’t feel good sitting on that seat, maybe you are uncomfortable with your looks, but any problems will disappear after the first session.
